ABSTRACT:
In an AC to DC power converter (off line switcher) and a method of converting AC power to DC power in high voltage systems the flyback converter's low side semiconductor switch has a lower breakdown voltage than its high side semiconductor switch. The lower breakdown voltage is achievable by means of a shunt regulator that controls a clamp voltage across the low side switch. The efficiency of the converter's post regulator is improved by processing only a fraction of the system's total power output.
